Profile:
Neil Smith has held two rather unusual records. When he led Warwickshire out
for a one-day game against Northamptonshire in 1997, it was the first time a
father and son had both captained the county. His father, of course, was MJK
Smith, who also captained England. Smith junior's other claim to fame is
that he registered the earliest century in County Championship history when
he hit a hundred against Durham at Edgbaston on 17 April, 1998. However, he
lost that record to team-mate Dougie Brown a year later. Unfortunately for
Smith, he also lost the captaincy to Michael Powell at the end of the 2000
season - in which the county reached a Lord's final and gained promotion in
the National League. Smith made his debut for Warwickshire in 1987 and
received his county cap six years later. A right-hand bat and off-spin
bowler, he has turned in a series of consistent seasons, averaging in the
mid-20s with the bat and taking more than 300 first-class wickets, but at an
average of well over 30. He played in two One-Day Internationals in South
Africa and three World Cup games in Pakistan in 1995/96. Two more one-day
appearances followed in the summer against India but his performances were
rather ordinary. (Graham Holburn, January 2001)
